still waiting for my mail order copy to turn up, and then at the weekend I saw it in WH Smith at Euston station.
I managed to resist touching it!!!
Still excited about it arriving through my door, whenever that may be.....

Blimey, are you still waiting! Call 08456 777 800 and get that sorted out. I can only apologise on their behalf.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but what exactly is the appeal of abridged printouts of various threads from the forums? confused

You're quite right Greg, as the forum content is actually the smallest part of the overall content.

There's some bespoke content too.

I must say I did get some funny looks reading the 'Taking the cat to the vet' thread extracts on the tube! Tears rolling down my face - I'd not read it before.

I think it should be compulsory to buy this if you use these forums. Least I can do is buy one to support the site taht has given me so much fun and advice.

Very good read and well put together- nice one guys.

well, I just phoned them Garlick and they tell a different story. They say (I spoke to "Laura") that their agreement is for dispatch within 7 to 14 days, and even though my order was placed 7 days ago it still hasn't left their offices yet. No estimated date of delivery was available to give to me but I'm "not to worry", it'll get sent out sometime......

The last 4 or 5 WH Smith's that I've been into, have all had 4 or 5 on the shelf.

Maybe I should buy them and get onto ebay hehe
